Abstract
The palladium anchored to BisPyP@bilayer-SiO2@NMP organic-inorganic hybrid was employed as an effective and recyclable organometallic catalyst in Suzuki and Stille C-C coupling reactions. The structure of this magnetic nanocatalyst was determined using various techniques such as SEM, TEM, FT-IR, EDS, ICP-OES, VSM, N2 adsorption-desorption isotherms, XRD, and TGA. In both of the mentioned coupling paths, the yields of the products were very favorable and ranged from 90 to 98%. Also, they had significant features compared to previous reports, such as very short reaction time (5-15 and 7-20 min respectively in the Suzuki and Stille reactions), easy work-up, broad substrate scope, ease of separation of the catalyst using a magnet, suitable reproducibility of the catalyst in 6 runs, heterogeneous nature of the catalyst and not washing it during consecutive runs with confirmation of hot filtration and ICP-OES methods.

Abstract
Compared to the conventional approach, nanoparticles (NPs) facilitate a non-hazardous, non-toxic, non-interactive, and biocompatible system, rendering them incredibly promising for improving drug delivery to target cells. When that comes to accomplishing specific therapeutic agents like drugs, peptides, nucleotides, etc., lipidic nanoparticulate systems have emerged as even more robust. They have asserted impressive ability in bypassing physiological and cellular barriers, evading lysosomal capture and the proton sponge effect, optimizing bioavailability, and compliance, lowering doses, and boosting therapeutic efficacy. However, the lack of selectivity at the cellular level hinders its ability to accomplish its potential to the fullest. The inclusion of surface functionalization to the lipidic NPs might certainly assist them in adapting to the basic biological demands of a specific pathological condition. Several ligands, including peptides, enzymes, polymers, saccharides, antibodies, etc., can be functionalized onto the surface of lipidic NPs to achieve cellular selectivity and avoid bioactivity challenges. This review provides a comprehensive outline for functionalizing lipid-based NPs systems in prominence over target selectivity. Emphasis has been put upon the strategies for reinforcing the therapeutic performance of lipidic nano carriers' using a variety of ligands alongside instances of relevant commercial formulations.

Abstract
A large number of drugs are introduced each year to treat different diseases. Most of the time, patients suffer from more than one health problem which makes it necessary to take multiple drugs. When drugs are combined, the problem of drug-drug interaction becomes relevant. In this work, we studied the drug-drug interaction between escitalopram and ibuprofen or paracetamol using density functional theory and quantum theory of atoms in molecules. The results suggest that following the interactions, the activity of drugs changes according to site of interaction. Most reactive and most stable interactions would be preferable for the purpose of use. The in silico drug-likeness studies show that escitalopram and paracetamol couple is more bioavailable than escitalopram and ibuprofen couple. Moreover, in order to gain additional insights into the mentioned drugs' interactions, the drugs were docked separately and jointly against the potential targets for antidepressants and NSAIDs, namely 6HIS and 2PXX. The molecular docking results showed a potential improvement of the effectiveness of the drugs after combining by forming hydrogen bonds, hydrophobic contacts and π…π stacking.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.

Design of Novel Phosphatidylinositol 3-Kinase Inhibitors for Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma: Molecular Docking, Molecular Dynamics, and Density Functional Theory Studies on Gold Nanoparticles. Molecules 2023; 28:molecules28052289. [PMID: 36903539 PMCID: PMC10005307 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28052289] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/06/2023] [Revised: 02/25/2023] [Accepted: 02/27/2023] [Indexed: 03/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Non-Hodgkin's lymphomas are a diverse collection of lymphoproliferative cancers that are much less predictable than Hodgkin's lymphomas with a far greater tendency to metastasize to extranodal sites. A quarter of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma cases develop at extranodal sites and the majority of them involve nodal and extranodal sites. The most common subtypes include follicular lymphoma, chronic/small lymphocytic leukaemia, mantel cell lymphoma, and marginal zone lymphoma. Umbralisib is one of the latest PI3Kδ inhibitors in clinical trials for several hematologic cancer indications. In this study, new umbralisib analogues were designed and docked to the active site of PI3Kδ, the main target of the phosphoinositol-3-kinase/Akt/mammalian target of the rapamycin pathway (PI3K/AKT/mTOR). This study resulted in eleven candidates, with strong binding to PI3Kδ with a docking score between -7.66 and -8.42 Kcal/mol. The docking analysis of ligand-receptor interactions between umbralisib analogues bound to PI3K showed that their interactions were mainly controlled by hydrophobic interactions and, to a lesser extent, by hydrogen bonding. In addition, the MM-GBSA binding free energy was calculated. Analogue 306 showed the highest free energy of binding with -52.22 Kcal/mol. To identify the structural changes and the complexes' stability of proposed ligands, molecular dynamic simulation was used. Based on this research finding, the best-designed analogue, analogue 306, formed a stable ligand-protein complex. In addition, pharmacokinetics and toxicity analysis using the QikProp tool demonstrated that analogue 306 had good absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion properties. Additionally, it has a promising predicted profile in immune toxicity, carcinogenicity, and cytotoxicity. In addition, analogue 306 had stable interactions with gold nanoparticles that have been studied using density functional theory calculations. The best interaction with gold was observed at the oxygen atom number 5 with -29.42 Kcal/mol. Further in vitro and in vivo investigations are recommended to be carried out to verify the anticancer activity of this analogue.

Abstract
A nanocomposite composed of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and core-shell nanoparticles of Fe3O4@SiO2 was prepared as a pH-responsive nanocarrier for quercetin (QC) delivery. The nanoparticles were further entrapped in a water-in-oil-in-water emulsion system for a sustained release profile. The CMC/Fe3O4@SiO2/QC nanoparticles were characterized using dynamic light scattering (DLS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), a field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM), and a vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) to obtain insights into their size, stability, functional groups/chemical bonds, crystalline structure, morphology, and magnetic properties, respectively. The entrapment and loading efficiency were slightly improved after the incorporation of Fe3O4@SiO2 NPs within the hydrogel network. The dialysis method was applied for drug release studies. It was found that the amount of QC released increased with the decrease in pH from 7.4 to 5.4, while the sustained-release pattern was preserved. The A549 cell line was chosen to assess the anticancer activity of the CMC/Fe3O4@SiO2/QC nanoemulsion and its components for lung cancer treatment via an MTT assay. The L929 cell line was used in the MTT assay to determine the possible side effects of the nanoemulsion. Moreover, a flow cytometry test was performed to measure the level of apoptosis and necrosis. Based on the obtained results, CMC/Fe3O4@SiO2 can be regarded as a novel promising system for cancer therapy.

Abstract
1,4-naftoquinone (NQ) molecules have been extensively evaluated as potent antibacterial compounds; however, their use is limited, since they have low water solubility and exhibit toxicities in healthy eukaryotic cells. A possible path to overcoming these challenges is the use of particulate vehicles, such as SBA-15, which is a biocompatible and biodegradable mesoporous silica material, that may enhance drug delivery and decrease dosages. In this work, an isotherm model-based adsorption of three NQs into SBA-15 microparticles was evaluated. Interactions between NQs and SBA-15 microparticles were modeled at the B3LYP/6-31+G(d,p) level of theory to understand the nature of such interactions. The results demonstrated that the adsorption of NQ, 2NQ, and 5NQ into SBA-15 fit the Freundlich adsorption model. According to theorical studies, physisorption is mediated by hydrogen bonds, while the most stable interactions occur between the carbonyl group of NQ and silica surfaces. Both experimental and theoretical results contribute to a deeper understanding of the use of SBA-15 or similar particles as nanovehicles in such a way that NQs can be modified in carbonyl or C3 to enhance adsorptions. The theoretical and experimental results were in accordance and contribute to a deeper understanding of how interactions between NQ-type molecules and SiO2 materials occur.

Abstract
A series of new composite materials based on Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles coated with SiO2 (or aminated SiO2) were synthesized. It has been shown that the use of N-(phosphonomethyl)iminodiacetic acid (PMIDA) to stabilize nanoparticles before silanization ensures the increased content of a SiO2 phase in the Fe3O4@SiO2 nanocomposites (NCs) in comparison with materials obtained under similar conditions, but without PMIDA. It has been demonstrated for the first time that the presence of PMIDA on the surface of NCs increases the level of Dox loading due to specific binding, while surface modification with 3-aminopropylsilane, on the contrary, significantly reduces the sorption capacity of materials. These regularities were in accordance with the results of quantum chemical calculations. It has been shown that the energies of Dox binding to the functional groups of NCs are in good agreement with the experimental data on the Dox sorption on these NCs. The mechanisms of Dox binding to the surface of NCs were proposed: simultaneous coordination of Dox on the PMIDA molecule and silanol groups at the NC surface leads to a synergistic effect in Dox binding. The synthesized NCs exhibited pH-dependent Dox release, as well as dose-dependent cytotoxicity in in vitro experiments. The cytotoxic effects of the studied materials correspond to their calculated IC50 values. NCs with a SiO2 shell obtained using PMIDA exhibited the highest effect. At the same time, the presence of PMIDA in NCs makes it possible to increase the Dox loading, as well as to reduce its desorption rate, which may be useful in the design of drug delivery vehicles with a prolonged action. We believe that the data obtained can be further used to develop stimuli-responsive materials for targeted cancer chemotherapy.

Abstract
Gemcitabine (GEM) is among the most used chemotherapies for advanced malignancies including non-small cell lung cancer. The clinical efficacy of GEM is, however, downplayed by its poor bioavailability, short half-life, drug resistance, and dose-limiting toxicities (e.g. myelosuppression). In spite of many approaches exploited to improve the efficacy and safety of GEM, limited success was achieved. The short A6 peptide (sequence: Ac-KPSSPPEE-NH2) is clinically validated for specific binding to CD44 on metastatic tumors. Here, we designed a robust and CD44-specific GEM nanotherapeutics by encapsulating hydrophobic phosphorylated gemcitabine prodrug (HPG) into the core of A6 peptide-functionalized disulfide-crosslinked micelles (A6-mHPG), which exhibited reduction-triggered HPG release and specific targetability to CD44 overexpressing tumor cells. Interestingly, A6 greatly enhanced the internalization and inhibitory activity of micellar HPG (mHPG) in CD44 positive A549 cells, and increased its accumulation in A549 cancerous lung, leading to potent repression of orthotopic tumor growth, depleted toxicity, and marked survival benefits compared to free HPG and mHPG (median survival time: 59 days versus 30 and 45 days, respectively). The targeted delivery of gemcitabine prodrug with disulfide-crosslinked biodegradable micelles appears to be a highly appealing strategy to boost gemcitabine therapy for advance tumors. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Gemcitabine (GEM) though widely used in clinics for treating advanced tumors is associated with poor bioavailability, short half-life and dose-limiting toxicities. Development of clinically translatable GEM formulations to improve its anti-tumor efficacy and safety is of great interest. Here, we report on CD44-targeting GEM nanotherapeutics obtained by encapsulating hydrophobic phosphorylated GEM prodrug (HPG), a single isomer of NUC-1031, into A6 peptide-functionalized disulfide-crosslinked micelles (A6-mHPG). A6-mHPG demonstrates stability against degradation, enhanced internalization and inhibition toward CD44+ cells, and increased accumulation in A549 lung tumor xenografts, leading to potent repression of orthotopic tumor growth, depleted toxicity and marked survival benefits. The targeted delivery of GEM prodrug using A6-mHPG is a highly appealing strategy to GEM cancer therapy.
